Julie Robinson of the popular Move it and Lose It series has brought us another valuable exercise CD for older people including those with dementia.

This is real favourite for those who enjoy gentle seated exercise with a little background music to go with it. Set to familiar music such as The Can-Can and The Blue Danube, everyone can join in and follow Julie’s clear, empathetic instruction.

Chair Exercises include: 

Gentle shoulder circles, heel raises, seated marching and arm swings, all of which aim to help with mobility, self-confidence, and wellbeing.
